Paying for therapy in Colorado

Will insurance cover it? Let's find out — free.

Coverage varies by plan, and no website — ours included — can tell you what your specific plan will do. What we can tell you: most Colorado families end up paying little or nothing for ABA once their benefits are confirmed, whether their child is covered through Medicaid or a private plan.

So instead of asking you to decode plan documents, we run a free benefit check. Send us a photo of your insurance card, and our team verifies your ABA benefits directly with your plan — then calls you back with a plain-English answer: what's covered, what you'd owe, and what happens next.

It's free whether or not you ever work with us, and it usually takes about a business day.

How the free benefit check works

This is the step that replaces weeks of hold music. Here's exactly what happens after you send us your card.

  1. 1

    You send one photo

    The front and back of your child's insurance card — Medicaid or private, either works. That's everything we need from you.

  2. 2

    We call your plan

    Our intake team verifies your ABA benefits directly with your plan: whether ABA is covered, what approvals are needed, and what your share would be.

  3. 3

    You get a plain-English answer

    Usually within a business day, a real person calls you back and tells you exactly where you stand — no jargon, no guessing, and no obligation.

Getting started in Colorado, step by step

Every Colorado family goes through the same short sequence — and we carry most of it.

  1. 1

    A 15-minute call

    You talk with an intake advocate — a person, not a phone tree. Tell us about your child, ask anything, and hang up knowing exactly what happens next.

  2. 2

    The free benefit check

    One photo of your insurance card. We confirm your benefits with your plan and give you the plain-English answer, usually within a business day.

  3. 3

    A BCBA meets your child

    A Board Certified Behavior Analyst spends real time with your child and writes the treatment plan with you, not for you. We handle every piece of the approval paperwork.

  4. 4

    Sessions start

    Therapy begins at home, at daycare, or by video — and we calendar every renewal from day one so care never lapses while paperwork processes.

The paperwork is our job, not yours

Approvals, plan documents, renewal dates, follow-up calls — our team runs all of it, and chases it daily so nothing sits in a queue. You'll always know where things stand, because we tell you before you have to ask.

And before your child starts, you get a written, plain-English summary of your benefits: what's covered, what you'd owe, and when. No surprises is a rule here, not a slogan.

What Colorado families can expect

A phone that a person answers. An honest start timeline for your part of Colorado before you commit to anything. A licensed, board-certified analyst designing and supervising every plan — and parent coaching built into all of it.

If something about your coverage changes mid-year, we call you before it costs you. And if another provider could genuinely serve your child sooner, we'll tell you that too.

Skip the phone tree. Start with a person.

Whatever card is in your wallet, the next step is the same 15-minute conversation. We verify your exact benefits free and tell you your honest start timeline in Colorado.

Or call (303) 483-7833 — a person answers.

Colorado questions, answered plainly

Does insurance cover ABA therapy in Colorado?
Coverage varies by plan, so we won't guess at yours — but most Colorado families pay little or nothing once benefits are confirmed, whether their child has Medicaid or private insurance. Send us a photo of your insurance card and we'll run a free benefit check and tell you exactly where you stand, usually within a business day.
What paperwork is needed before ABA starts in Colorado?
Broadly: an autism diagnosis, a referral for services, and a treatment plan written by a BCBA. Our team completes the assessment and plan, tells you exactly what to request from your child's doctor, and submits everything for approval on your behalf.
What will ABA actually cost my family?
It depends on your specific plan, which is exactly why the benefit check comes first. Many families pay little or nothing once benefits are confirmed, and before your child starts you'll have a written, plain-English summary of what's covered and what you'd owe. No surprises, ever.
How many hours a week will Colorado approve?
Hours are set child-by-child, not from a menu. Your BCBA recommends a number based on your child's assessment and your family's real schedule, and you see and approve the plan before it's submitted.
Is there a waitlist for ABA in Colorado?
Waitlists vary by provider and city. Tell us your zip code and schedule and we'll give you an honest answer about start timing in your area before you commit to anything.
My child doesn't have a diagnosis yet. Can we still start?
Yes — that's where many Colorado families begin. We'll help you understand the signs, point you to evaluation options in Colorado, and run your benefit check in the meantime so therapy can start as soon as the diagnosis is in hand.
